Network Rail

Network Rail owns, operates, maintains and develops the railway infrastructure across England, Scotland and Wales, helping connect communities and keep Britain moving. It works around the clock to support a safe and reliable railway, maintaining and upgrading thousands of miles of track and delivering major infrastructure projects. Its work also includes long-term planning, improving railway routes and stations, and managing disruption to reduce its impact on passengers.

Network Rail provides information and support for travellers, including station facilities and accessibility, assisted travel, journey planning, railway safety and explanations of delays. It owns and manages some of Britain’s largest and busiest stations, where visitors can find information about access, food, drink and shopping. The organisation also works with train operators, freight businesses, suppliers and other commercial stakeholders, offering resources on railway operations, the supply chain, property, timetables and rail technology.

Safety and sustainability are central to Network Rail’s work. It promotes safer behaviour around the railway and is working towards a cleaner, greener future.
